Status: offline 		Let me try this again, apparently I explained it badly.

Here is a little wsh script which works by inserting tabs when I hit cntrl-alt-a (which Ive defined in the shortcut of the wsh file using the properties tab).  I use the control sequence inside of the currently executing pgm, such as notepad.

Dim WshShell
Set WshShell = Wscript.CreateObject("Wscript.shell")
WshShell.Sendkeys "{TAB}"
WshShell.Sendkeys "{TAB}"

However, what I really want to do is send AUSTIN {TAB} TX {TAB} 787
But when I add the line  WshShell.Sendkeys "AUSTIN" it does nothing, though I get no runtime error
When I add the line WshShell.Echo "AUSTIN"  (which I didnt think would work anyway)  I get a runtime error.

Is there some command that will successfully send text?  Thanks!

I can get text into those pop up boxes using Echo, but that isnt of much help.

I did this and it worked just as you said.

send AUSTIN {TAB} TX {TAB} 787

Dim WshShell
Set WshShell = Wscript.CreateObject("Wscript.shell") 
WshShell.Sendkeys "AUSTIN"
WshShell.Sendkeys " "
WshShell.Sendkeys "{TAB}"
WshShell.Sendkeys " "
WshShell.Sendkeys "TX"
WshShell.Sendkeys "{TAB}"
WshShell.Sendkeys " "
WshShell.Sendkeys "787"

output is - AUSTIN   TX  787
